Marcus Mariota trade market has dried up significantly

Raiders backup QB Marcus Mariota appeared headed towards being the latest QB to get traded this offseason. Ian Rapoport reports that the trade market has "dried up significantly" in recent days due to the incentives in Mariota's contract.

I know your act. You were the same guy clamoring for Micheal Bishop and Tommy Hodson to play back in the day. You probably thought Ryan Mallett was going to be a superstar, as well. And now you think Stidham is the next Aaron Rodgers waiting in the wings. I get it. Everyone loves to imagine the backup QB is some future star just waiting for his opportunity. I hate to burst that bubble, but Stidham has nothing. They need to upgrade over him, because he is just not a pro QB. And if you think that Stidham is a better option than a veteran like Mariota right now, you are completely hopeless.

I was largely in favor of starting Bishop over Bledsoe. I fucking hated Bledsoe and Brady proved me right.

Haha. Awesome. I knew this would draw some of the Michael Bishop crowd out of the woodwork.

Is Mariota better than Cam and/or Stidham, or not?

Maybe not.
Cam has won MVP and gotten to a SB.
What has MM done?

Having seen his potential here in TN and now seeing him get run out of LV.
I'd have to lean towards not.

Fair. Now do Stidham.

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Fair. Now do Stidham.

Why?

 

[chappee11]

Why?

Because we were comparing Stidham and Mariota, remember? Several on here preferred Stidham. I thought that was hilarious.

Stidham has never lost an NFL game.....

Stidham hasn't been let go by his first team and on his way out of his second.

Mariota is only going to be on the block again because he isn’t willing to take a pay cut. You can’t kill the guy for that.

Actually you have shown again and again you don't know jack shit, so don't try to assign what I thought about any player to try and support your already weak argument. No one ever said Stidham was better than Mariotta we don't know no one does, we do however know Mariotta has shown he cannot play at this level. We do know that the Titans let him go, he could not beat out Carr for the job, and it seems like the Raiders have no issue letting him go. If there is anyone here talking out his ass it you.

No you are, we are talking about a potential starting QB, who we are wanting to see on our roster.

Oh man. Ryan Mallett’s #1 fan says I don’t know jack shit about this topic. What ever will I do?? LMAO!

Well here it is, you have nothing to add, no substantive input so you resort to general assholery.

Look we deal with douche bags like you all the time on this board so here is the way this is going to end. It's apparent you have nothing to add so I will let you have the last word, and you can do with that what you will. I am done wasting my time with you, I am sure there are enough Pats posters who are more than willing to banter back and forth with you.

Have a nice day, good luck with your season.

Please feel free to block me, so I never have to read your drivel again. I’ve posted on boards like this for probably 15 years. I’ve encountered many people who like to play the “angry dick” role(and you aren’t even bad at it). But I don’t have time for you in my life. Piss off.

Mariota is only going to be on the block again because he isn’t willing to take a pay cut. You can’t kill the guy for that.

And why is he being asked to take a pay cut?
Because there is zero chance that he will be a starter, but with nfl experience and a year in grudens system he has a minuscule amount of backup value.
Stidham has a couple of years in the BB/JM system and on his rookie contract brings more value and potential. Mary brings no potential.

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Well...we know that he can't be any worse.

Perhaps.

We took Stid in the 4th if memory calls. Mariotta was the 2nd overall pick, as I stated no one expected Stidham to beat out TB 12. But when you take a kid #2 overall are willing to cut him lose, and then his new team asks him to take a pay cut, seems the better value is in that 4th round pick

My point exactly.

Actually, you have to do the blocking by putting him on "Ignore".

Actually Reb is correct. You don't have any Pro avis, just college. Not that it's a problem, but it's kinda hard to know which way you're actually going if you're not declared. All indications are that you're a Bronco fan or a manning fan.

Just so you understand. I honestly don't care, but the guys in here will tell you if you don't already know, I get really analvabout screwing around with unrelated shit in a thread. This is the Rumor thread and over the past week, it's become a bullshit Mariota thread.

In all honesty, I've actually killed people for a lot less.
